statements.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, and have been prepared by the
Company without audit in accordance with the Company's accounting policies, as
described in its latest annual report filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, the accompanying
consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of
those of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the
Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows at the dates
and for the periods indicated. While the Company believes that the disclosures
presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, these financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
related notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
transition period ended December 31, 1996.

2. INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

    Income (loss) per common share is computed based on the weighted average
number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during
each period except in loss periods. Dilutive common equivalent shares consist of
warrants and stock options (calculated using the Treasury Stock Method) and have
been excluded from the primary earnings per share calculation for all periods
presented as they are antidilutive. Fully diluted and primary earnings per share
are the same amounts for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.

3. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

    On March 27, 1997, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities of
Multiquest Corporation ("Multiquest") in a transaction accounted for as a
purchase. The Company acquired such assets and liabilities in exchange for
50,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The purchase price for Multiquest
was approximately $209,000 based upon a stock price of $4.1875 per share (which
approximated the fair market value of a share of the Company's common stock at
the closing of the acquisition). The net tangible assets and liabilities of
Multiquest acquired by the Company were insignificant. The purchase price was
allocated to the fair value of the technology acquired and customer lists, and
is being amortized over three years. The Company's results reflect the
allocation of the purchase price in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles and the results of operations reflect the impact of the
acquisition since the date of closing. The pro-forma results of Multiquest prior
to the acquisition would be immaterial to the Company's reported results and are
therefore not presented.

4. LINE OF CREDIT

    On November 6, 1996, the Company amended and restated its revolving credit
agreement with a bank to borrow up to $5.0 million to extend its term through
October 4, 1997 and to amend certain of the financial and operating covenants
and other provisions thereunder. In connection with the amendment, the Company
issued to the bank a three-year warrant to purchase 25,000 shares of the
Company's common stock at an exercise price of $4.25. The loan is contingent
upon meeting certain financial and operating covenants at the time of any
borrowing and over the life of the loan. The loan is secured by all of the
assets of the Company and any borrowing amounts are tied to a percentage of
qualified accounts receivable outstanding at the time of any borrowing. The
financial covenants, which were further amended on April 1, 1997, include the
attainment of certain specified levels of consolidated net income (loss) at the
end of each quarter including profitability of $250,000 for the quarter ending
June 30, 1997 and each quarter thereafter, and liquidity (generally defined as
cash and cash equivalents plus eligible domestic accounts receivable and
eligible international accounts receivable less any indebtedness to the bank)
at the end of each month. The Company was in compliance with all covenants, as
amended, except for the profitability covenant for which the Company obtained a
waiver, at June 30, 1997. The borrowing base under the revolving credit
agreement was approximately $2.5 million at June 30, 1997. The Company had
approximately $2.8 million outstanding against the line of credit at June 30,
1997 and is currently working   to perfect certain international trade
receivables to resolve the short fall.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

5. CAPITAL STOCK

    On January 2, 1997, the Company raised approximately $3.0 million through
the private placement of 150,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred
Stock, designated from its "blank check" preferred stock. Each share of Series
B Convertible Preferred Stock is entitled to earn dividends at a rate of 5% per
annum, payable upon conversion, in cash or stock, at the option of the Company.
Each share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into shares
of Common Stock at a rate determined by the lower of the average quoted market
price of the common stock for either (i) the ten trading days preceding the
date of issuance or (ii) any five trading days during any period of thirty days
before the conversion. In conjunction with the closing of the private
placement, the Company issued warrants to purchase 350,000 shares of the
Company's Common Stock at exercise prices ranging from 120% to 150% of the
price set forth in clause (i) above and having varying expiration dates from
three to five years. The shares of Common Stock underlying the Series B
convertible Preferred stock and Warrants were registered pursuant to the terms
of the registration rights agreement dated January 3, 1997. These shares were   
fully converted into 937,500 shares of common stock on June 6, 1997.

6. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

    In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
128 "Earnings Per Share", which will require adoption during the year ended
December 31, 1997. This statement specifies the computation, presentation and
disclosure requirements of earnings per share. The Company is in the process of
determining the effect of adoption of this statement on its consolidated
financial statements and related disclosures.

7. FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

    This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain forward-looking statements.
For this purpose, any statements contained herein that are not statements of
historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting
the foregoing, the words "believes," "anticipates," "plans," "expects," and
similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. There
are a number of important factors that could cause the Company's actual results
to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements.
These factors include, without limitation, those set forth in "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Final Condition and Results of Operations" under the
caption "Factors That May Affect Future Results."

8. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

    On July 18, 1997, the Company raised approximately $2.0 million through the
private placement of 100,000 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock,
designated from its "blank check" preferred stock. Each share of Series C
Convertible Preferred Stock is entitled to earn dividends at a rate of 5% per
annum, payable upon conversion, in cash or stock, at the option of the Company.
Each share of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of
Common Stock at a rate determined by the lower of the average quoted market
price of the common stock for either (i) the ten trading days preceding the date
of issuance or (ii) any five trading days during any period of thirty days
before the conversion. In conjunction with the closing of the private placement,
the Company issued warrants to purchase 233,332 shares of the Company's Common
Stock at exercise prices ranging from 125% to 150% of the price set forth in
clause (i) above and having varying expiration dates from three to five years.
The shares of Common Stock underlying the Series C convertible Preferred stock
and Warrants are subject to registration pursuant to the terms of the
registration rights agreement dated July 18, 1997.

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

    The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims which arise in the
ordinary course of its business. In the opinion of management, the amount of
ultimate liability with respect to these actions will not materially affect the
financial position of the Company.

Cayenne has received correspondence from Esprit Systems Consulting, Inc.
claiming that Cayenne's subsidiary, Cadre Technologies, Inc. is liable to Esprit
for approximately $1.6 million under an extension to a contract for services to
be rendered to Cadre. Cayenne believes that the claim is without merit because,
among other things, the contract in question terminated without extension. The
claim has not been asserted formally in arbitration or litigation, and no
assurance can be given as to its future course or likely result.

      ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSIONS AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

    Cayenne Software, Inc. is one of the largest global suppliers of analysis
and design solutions for commercial and technical application and database
development. Cayenne offers development teams a scaleable,
workgroup-to-enterprise product family for object-oriented, data driven and
structured application development approaches.

    During the three and six months ended June 30, 1997, the Company's results
reflect a continued product mix shift from its mature mainframe and structured
analysis and design products to client/server and object-oriented solutions. As
a result of the product mix shift, reduced sales of third party products and
expense management during the three and six months ended June 30, 1997, gross
margins rose to 76% and 78%, respectively. Worldwide revenues for the three and
six months ended June 30, 1997 declined 21% and 15%, respectively over the
comparable period of the prior year. Additionally, because the Company derives a
significant portion of its business overseas, results were impacted by the rapid
rise of dollar against many foreign currencies including the Italian Lira and
German Mark. The Company remains actively engaged in building alternate channels
such as value-added resellers ("VARs") and systems integrators worldwide to
promote distribution through alternate channels which can leverage its expanded
product offerings.

    On March 27, 1997, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities of
Multiquest Corporation ("Multiquest") in a transaction accounted for as a
purchase. The Company acquired those assets and liabilities from Multiquest in
exchange for 50,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The purchase price for
Multiquest was approximately $209,000 based upon a stock price of $4.1875 (which
approximated the fair market value of a share of the Company's common stock at
the closing of the acquisition). The product acquired by the Company from
Multiquest, Pepperseed (formerly named S-Case) provides users with a low priced,
entry level object-oriented solution that is fully scaleable to its Object-Team
product. The Company intends to market Pepperseed through its direct sales
force, VARs, channel partners and the world wide web.

    On March 29, 1997, the Company sold certain of the assets and liabilities of
its French subsidiary, Cayenne Software S.A.R.L., to Case Associates France S.A.
("Case"). Under the terms of the acquisition Case assumed Cayenne S.A.R.L.'s
then remaining maintenance obligations to customers and certain other
liabilities, acquired its customer list and certain personal property and
entered into a distribution agreement with the Company to distribute its
products in France. In connection with the transaction, the Company issued a
warrant to purchase up to 20,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an
exercise price of $4.32 per share to an affiliate of Case. The costs related to
the transaction were immaterial.

    As the Company continues to expand its product offerings to provide
customers a more open and flexible set of solutions aimed at the growing
client/server and object-oriented market, it faces many challenges. The Company
has addressed some of these challenges through the acquisition (the "Merger")
of Cadre Technologies Inc. ("Cadre") which provides the Company with broader
product offerings and a larger customer base from which to solicit new and
additional business. Also, the Company has introduced additional products
during the past three years through both internal development and acquisitions
targeted at the client/server and object-oriented markets. The Company plans to
continue to enhance its product offerings through development efforts,
strategic alliances and acquisitions to improve its competitive position. The
actions necessary to expand product offerings and reposition the Company have
had an adverse effect on the Company's operating results during the first six
months of 1997, and may continue to effect operating results throughout the
remainder of 1997.   

REVENUES

    The Company's revenues are currently derived from three sources: (i) fees
for the perpetual license of the Company's proprietary software products, (ii)
fees from sales of consulting and education services, and (iii) maintenance fees
for maintaining, supporting and providing periodic upgrades of the Company's
software products.

</TABLE>

    SOFTWARE LICENSE. Software license revenue for the three and six months
ended June 30, 1997 amounted to $3.8 million and $8.9 million, respectively
compared to $5.0 million and $10.3 million in the comparable periods of 1996, a
decrease of 24% and 14%, respectively. The decrease in license revenues during
the three and six month periods reflect a continued product mix shift from the
Company's mature mainframe and structured analysis and design products to
client/server and object-oriented solutions. To date, growth in newer
client/server and object-oriented product lines has been insufficient to offset
reduced revenues from the Company's more mature Analyst and Teamwork family of
products. Additionally, a reorganization of the Company's sales force during
June 1997 resulted in a longer sales cycle for software licenses adversely
effecting license revenue.

    Client/server and object-oriented products accounted for 52% and 58% of new
license revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 compared to 40%
and 35% for the comparable periods of the prior year. The Company expects this
trend to continue during 1997 as client/server and object-oriented solutions
continue to gain global acceptance and installed customers elect to follow
market trends and migrate from mainframe and structured analysis and design
tools to client/server and object-oriented solutions. License revenues in the
United States declined by 41% and 11% due to the aforementioned product mix
shift and reorganization of the Company's sales force. License revenue in Italy
increased by 180% and 21% primarily due to several large orders received in June
of 1997. License revenues from the Company's United Kingdom subsidiary declined
73% and 66% due to changes in the Company's management team related to the
consolidation of the Company's and Cadre's United Kingdom operations in
connection with the merger, lower demand for mature products and a longer sales
cycle.

CONSULTING AND EDUCATION SERVICES. Consulting and education revenue for the
three and six months ended June 30, 1997 amounted to $2.4 million and $4.9
million, respectively compared to $3.1 million and $6.5 million for the
comparable periods of the prior year, a decrease of 22% and 24%, respectively.
The decrease in consulting and education services revenue during the three and
six month periods reflects lower demand for these services as revenues tend to
follow the trend of software license revenue. Consulting and education revenue
in United States decreased by 36% and 41% due to lower demand and reduced
staffing in this area. Revenues in Italy decreased by 17% in both periods
primarily due to the expiration of several long term consulting contracts in the
comparable periods of 1996. Consulting and education revenue in the United
Kingdom decreased by 43% and 66% due to lower demand and staffing in these
areas.

                      AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

    MAINTENANCE. Maintenance revenue for annual maintenance contracts is
deferred and recognized ratably over the term of the agreement. Maintenance
revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 amounted to $5.4
million and $11.3 million, respectively compared to $6.7 million and $12.9
million for the comparable periods of the prior year, a decrease of 19% and 12%,
respectively. Maintenance revenue in the United States declined by 22% and 17%
due to the aforementioned market place migration to client/server and
object-oriented tools and fewer customers renewing their maintenance contracts
on mainframe and structured analysis and design tools. Maintenance revenue in
Italy increased by 7% and 35% primarily due to increased penetration of
international markets in the prior year combined with an increased portion of
the customer base that renewed maintenance contracts. Maintenance revenue in the
United Kingdom declined by 11% and 8% primarily due to declines in new license
revenue and fewer customers renewing their maintenance contracts on mainframe
and structured analysis and design tools.

</TABLE>

    COST OF REVENUE. The Company's cost of software licenses includes product
packaging, documentation, media and royalties to third parties, as well as the
amortization of capitalized software development costs. Costs of consulting and
education services and maintenance includes personnel, travel and occupancy
costs connected with providing such services.

    Cost of software licenses were $0.6 million and $1.1 million or 5% of
revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 compared with $0.7
million and $1.8 million or 5% and 6% of revenue in the comparable periods of
1996. The decrease in 1997 expenses reflects reduced sales of third party
products for which the Company pays a royalty to resell as well as reduced
manufacturing costs consistent with reduced revenues. Additionally, amortization
related to WindTunnel was $0 during the three and six months ended June 30, 1997
as compared to $0.1 million and $0.2 million in the comparable periods of the
prior year. This reduction is directly related to the Company's determination in
June 1996 that the WindTunnel product was no longer consistent with the
Company's objectives.

    Cost of consulting, education and maintenance was $2.2 million and $4.3
million or 19% and 17% of revenue in the three and six months ended June 30,1997
compared with $2.9 million and $5.9 million or 20% of revenue in the comparable
periods of 1996. The decrease in 1997 expenses is primarily attributable to
reduced staffing levels as a result of company efforts to better align staffing
with demand, attrition and the merger.

    SALES AND MARKETING. Sales and marketing expenses were $6.2 million and
$12.5 million or 53% and 50% of revenue in the three and six months ended June
30, 1997 compared with $7.6 million and $15.6 million or 51% and 53% of revenue
in the comparable periods of 1996. The decrease in 1997 expenses primarily
reflects reduced staffing in North America and international subsidiary
operations as a result of attrition and the merger.

      ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSIONS AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                      AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

    RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expenses were $2.8
million and $5.6 million or 24% and 22% of revenue in the three and six months
ended June 30, 1997 compared with $3.2 million and $6.5 million or 22% of
revenue in the comparable periods of 1996. The decrease in 1997 expenses
primarily reflects reduced staffing as a result of attrition and the merger.
Additionally, during June of 1996, the Company reviewed its product strategy and
determined that several products including WindTunnel were no longer consistent
with the Company's objectives. These efforts shifted resources toward developing
and or refining core client/server and object oriented products consistent with
the Company's objectives.

    GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses were $1.6
million and $3.1 million or 14% and 12% of revenue in the three and six months
ended June 30, 1997 compared with $1.9 million and $4.2 million or 13% and 14%
of revenue in the comparable periods of 1996. The decrease in 1997 expenses
primarily reflects lower levels of staffing which were the result of the merger
and the elimination of redundant positions.

    RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER COSTS. During the quarter ended March 31, 1997, the
Company evaluated its restructuring reserve and determined that certain amounts
provided for in previous restructuring actions were no longer required. As a
result, the Company recorded a benefit of approximately $0.4 million. During
June of 1996, in conjunction with the contemplated merger between Cayenne and
Cadre, the Company reviewed its product strategy and determined that several
products including WindTunnel were no longer consistent with the Company's
objectives. Accordingly the company evaluated the net realizable value of the
related intangible assets and recorded a charge of approximately $1.1 million
principally related to the write-off of the intangible assets acquired as part
of its acquisition of WindTunnel Software, Inc.

</TABLE>

    In addition to factors listed above, the operations of the Company's
international subsidiaries significantly affected results of operations in the
three and six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996.

    The income (loss) from operations -- United States and Rest of World --
improved to $(0.6) million and $0.5 million during the three and six months
ended June 30, 1997 from $(1.2) million and $(3.8) million in the corresponding
periods of the prior year. The improved results are primarily attributable to
actions taken by the Company in previous quarters to better align expenses with
revenues and improved efficiencies gained in the merger with Cadre.

    The Company's Italian subsidiary reported a loss from operations of $(0.5)
million for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 compared to losses of
$(1.2) million and $(1.0) million in the corresponding periods in the prior year
principally due several large orders received in June 1997.

    The loss from operations in the Company's United Kingdom subsidiary
increased to $(0.5) million and $(1.2) million for the three and six months
ended June 30, 1997 from $(0.3) million and $(0.6) million in the corresponding
periods in the prior year. The increase was principally due to lower license
revenues associated with the aforementioned marketplace migration to
client/server and object-oriented tools and changes in the Company's management
team related to the consolidation of the Company's and Cadre's United Kingdom
operations in connection with the merger.

      ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSIONS AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                      AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

    INTEREST EXPENSE, NET. Interest expense for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1997 decreased by $0.1 million and $0.2 million compared to the same
period of the prior fiscal year primarily due to lower interest rates on
outstanding balances.

    PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES. Due to the Company's recent history of operating
losses and the existence of significant net operating loss carryforwards, the
tax provision for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 is
primarily composed of foreign income and withholding taxes.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

    In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
128 "Earnings Per Share", which will require adoption during the year ended
December 31, 1997. This statement specifies the computation, presentation and
disclosure requirements of earnings per share. The Company is in the process of
determining the effect of adoption of this statement on its consolidated
financial statements and related disclosures.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    As of June 30, 1997, the Company's principal sources of liquidity included
cash and cash equivalents aggregating $4.1 million and a secured bank line of
credit in the amount of $5.0 million discussed below. Cash and cash equivalents
were principally unchanged compared to December 31, 1996. For the six months
ended June 30, 1997, cash flows were principally affected by the loss from
operations and capital spending related to the implementation of a new worldwide
information system. This spending was offset by the private placement of Series
B Preferred Stock, discussed below. The Company's principal long-term cash
commitments are for office space and operating leases. The lease for the
Company's executive offices, principal research and development facilities, and
headquarter operations expires on October 31, 1997. The Company is actively
engaged in negotiations to secure suitable space.

    On June 30, 1997, the Company had a commitment of approximately $1.0 million
related to the implementation of a new worldwide information system. The Company
plans to introduce the system in phases commencing in August of 1997 and
scheduled for completion in early 1998. The Company has no other material
commitments for capital expenditures.

    On January 2, 1997, the Company raised approximately $3.0 million through
the private placement of 150,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock,
designated from its "blank check" preferred stock. Each share of Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock is entitled to earn dividends at a rate of 5% per
annum, payable upon conversion, in cash or stock, at the option of the Company.
Each share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of
Common Stock at a rate determined by the lower of the average quoted market
price of the common stock for either (i) the ten trading days preceding the date
of issuance or (ii) any five trading days during any period of thirty days
before the conversion. In conjunction with the closing of the private placement,
the Company issued warrants to purchase 350,000 shares of the Company's Common
Stock at exercise prices ranging from 120% to 150% of the price set forth in
clause (i) above and having varying expiration dates from three to five years.
The shares of Common Stock underlying the Series B convertible Preferred stock
and Warrants were registered pursuant to the terms of the registration rights
agreement dated January 3, 1997. These shares were fully converted into 937,500
shares of Common Stock on June 6, 1997.

On July 18, 1997, the Company raised approximately $2.0 million through the
private placement of 100,000 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock,
designated from its "blank check" preferred stock. Each share of Series C
Convertible Preferred Stock is entitled to earn dividends at a rate of 5% per
annum, payable upon conversion, in cash or stock, at the option of the Company.
Each share of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of
Common Stock at a rate determined by the lower of the average quoted market
price of the common stock for either (i) the ten trading days preceding the date
of issuance or (ii) any five trading days during any period of thirty days
before the conversion. In conjunction with the closing of the private placement,
the Company issued warrants to purchase 233,332 shares of the Company's Common
Stock at exercise prices ranging from 125% to 150% of the price set forth in
clause (i) above and having varying expiration dates from three to five years.
The shares of Common Stock underlying the Series C convertible Preferred stock
and Warrants are subject to registration pursuant to the terms of the
registration rights agreement dated July 18, 1997.

      ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSIONS AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                      AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

On November 6, 1996, the Company amended and restated its revolving credit
agreement with a bank to borrow up to $5.0 million, to extend its term through
October 4, 1997 and to amend certain of the financial and operating covenants
and other provisions thereunder. In connection with the amendment, the Company
issued to the bank a three year warrant to purchase 25,000 shares of the
Company's common stock at an exercise price of $4.25 per share. The loan is
contingent upon meeting certain financial and operating covenants at the time of
any borrowing and over the life of the loan. The loan is secured by all of the
assets of the Company and any borrowing amounts are tied to a percentage of
qualified accounts receivable outstanding at the time of any borrowing. The
financial covenants, which were further amended on April 1, 1997, include the
attainment of certain specified levels of consolidated net income (loss) at the
end of each quarter, including profitability of $250,000 for the quarter ending
June 30, 1997 and each quarter thereafter, and liquidity (generally defined as
cash and cash equivalents plus eligible domestic accounts receivable and
eligible international accounts receivable less any indebtedness to the bank)
at the end of each month. The Company was in compliance with all covenants, as
amended, except for the profitability covenant for which the Company obtained a
waiver, at June 30, 1997. At June 30, 1997, the borrowing base under the
revolving credit agreement was approximately $2.5 million. The Company had
approximately $2.8 million outstanding against the line of credit at June 30,
1997 and is currently working   to perfect certain international trade
receivables to resolve the shortfall.

    On July 18, 1996, the Company completed its merger with Cadre of Providence,
Rhode Island. In connection with the merger, the Company issued 4,716,442 shares
of Cayenne common stock for all of the outstanding capital stock of Cadre. The
transaction was accounted for as a pooling-of-interests for accounting purposes
beginning in the transition period. The Company incurred a $6.3 million charge
to operations during the transition period to reflect costs associated with
combining the operations of the two companies, transaction fees, and other costs
incident to the merger.

    Cash expenditures for restructuring activities were approximately $0.2
million and $0.6 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 1997.
The Company currently estimates that cash expenditures for restructuring actions
for the remainder of 1997 will be approximately $0.4 million. The Company
believes that it has adequately provided for all restructuring actions taken to
date.

    The Company anticipates that existing cash balances combined with funds
generated from operations and the previously discussed private placement which
closed on July 18, 1997, will provide sufficient cash resources to finance its
current operations and projected capital expenditures through 1997. The Company
expects to renew or renegotiate its revolving credit agreement that expires on
October 4, 1997. In addition, the Company is currently seeking additional
sources of funding. Thereafter, the Company's cash requirements will depend
upon the results of future operations, including the impact of the Cadre
acquisition, which cannot be foreseen. There can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to meet its loan covenants, secure additional funding,
achieve its operating plan and sustain profitability, and failure to do so may
have a material adverse impact  on the Company's business and operations. 

    The Company has been notified by The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. that it is
not in compliance with the net tangible asset requirement for continued listing
on the Nasdaq National Market. The Company has been given terms which include
raising additional equity, with which it must comply. If the Company is not
successful, its stock will be listed under the Nasdaq SmallCap Market. The
Company intends to meet this requirement by raising additional equity.

FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

    From time to time, information provided by the Company or statements made by
its employees may contain "forward-looking" information, as that term is defined
in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act"). The Company
cautions investors that there can be no assurance that actual results or
business conditions will not differ materially from those projected or suggested
in such forward-looking statements as a result of various factors including but
not limited to the following:

    The Company's future operating results are dependent on its ability to
develop, produce, and market new and innovative products and services internally
or through acquisitions including, without limitation, achieving product market
acceptance of its client/server and object oriented products and services and
maintaining relationships with software and hardware vendors and consultants.
There are numerous risks inherent in this complex process, including rapid
technological change the requirements that the Company bring to market in a
timely fashion new products and services which meet customers' changing needs
and the successful integration of products and services as a result of
acquisitions.

    Historically the Company has generated a disproportionate amount of its
operating revenues toward the end of each quarter, making precise prediction of
revenues and earnings particularly difficult and resulting in risk of variance
of actual results from those forecast an any time. In addition, the company's
operating results historically have varied from fiscal period to fiscal period;
accordingly, the Company's financial results in any particular fiscal period are
not necessarily indicative of results for future periods.

      ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSIONS AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                      AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

    The Company operates in a highly competitive environment and in a highly
competitive industry, which include significant pricing pressures and intense
competition for skilled employees. From time to time, the Company may experience
unanticipated intense competitive pressure, possibly causing operating results
to vary from those expected.

    The Company offers its products and services directly and through indirect
distribution channels. Changes in the financial condition of, or the Company's
relationship with, distributors and other indirect channel partners could cause
actual operating results to vary from those expected.

    The Company does business worldwide. Global and/or regional economic factors
and potential changes in laws and regulations affecting the Company's business,
including without limitation, currency fluctuation, changes in monetary policy
and tariffs, and federal, state and international laws could impact the
Company's financial condition or future results of operations.

    The market price of the Company's securities could be subject to fluctuation
in response to quarter to quarter variations in operating results, changes in
analysts' earnings estimates, market conditions in the information technology
industry, as well as general economic conditions and other factors external to
the Company.

                     PART II. OTHER INFORMATION (CONTINUED)

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

    Cayenne has received correspondence from Esprit Systems Consulting, Inc.
    claiming that Cayenne's subsidiary, Cadre Technologies, Inc. is liable to
    Esprit for approximately $1.6 million under an extension to a contract for
    services to be rendered to Cadre. Cayenne believes that the claim is without
    merit because, among other things, the contract in question terminated
    without extension. The claim has not been asserted formally in arbitration
    or litigation, and no assurance can be given as to its future course or
    likely result.

    The Company is not aware of any other material litigation or claim pending
    or threatened against the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
